description: |
Ensure that Microsoft Azure network security groups (NSGs) do not allow unrestricted access on TCP port 443, used for HTTPS, to protect against unauthorized access and data breaches.
impact: |
Unrestricted access on TCP port 443 can expose sensitive data to interception and manipulation by malicious actors, potentially leading to significant security incidents.
remediation: |
Modify NSG rules to restrict access on TCP port 443. Only allow known IPs, and consider using advanced security measures such as Web Application Firewalls.
